     @pawlicker A family member literally had a conversation about Terry A Davis with his boss once.

     Dude had a heart of gold ... even if you don't get the CIA/glowies things, anyone should be able to see he was intelligent and a kind, troubled soul .. the Daniel Johnson of computer science ...

     @djsumdog @pawlicker Too bad, he will be mostly known for the memes more than the OS or any of his other works. I would really like to see a serious operating system using things like a full programming language as the shell or graphics in the source code.

     @Soy_Magnus @djsumdog @pawlicker Sure he is comedy gold for some, but as Mister Metokur said at the end of his video, he is the perfect example on how mental illness can ruin even the most talented people.

     @xianc78 @djsumdog @pawlicker its sad he did t attributes his skills in a place where his work would be more widely viewed. I asked p if he had a chance to look at Terrys work and he said no but im sure its laborious to go over code especially if your never gonna come across it again look lol

     @Soy_Magnus @djsumdog @pawlicker He worked as an operating system programmer for TicketMaster back in the 90s, before his mental breakdown.

     There are forks of Temple OS out there that add a few features that you would find in a normal OS like networking. Though a lot of forks try not to stray away from Terry's original vision, just out of respect.
